Royce, Bill and families,
Once again, I am so sorry to hear of your latest loss. I was surprised to see this in the paper. I remember the time we all spent while I cared for your Mother at Hospice House, and am deeply saddened to hear your family has suffered yet another loss. Please know that you are all in my prayers.

My memory of Don is that he is the one that taught the little, visiting, city cousin to call the cows in rather than to try chaseing them in.
